I hear you. One other side benefit that this approach has had is the number of towels I have to wash. Last two times I had 1-2 towels (on an XC 90!). Now you still wait for a full load to run it but you can put it off for a longer time. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

That is my experience. The hose pours a lot more water per minute then the pressure washer. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

Interesting. I think it does use more product but I start with a GG gallon size and price is very good here. I am finding the surface fairly dry without spots and I just have to do the windows. YMMV Sent from my iPhone using AGOnline

Thanks to the guidance from fly07sti I have been hooked on these two equipment upgrades. I don't have to touch the paint unless a certain location warrants it. Maybe it doesn't get as clean as it would be if I used a mitt but boy it is much faster and I don't introduce new scratches. I think...

So this is a follow up to another post on a mirror repair. There was a slightly raised spot in the repaired paint. I figured he just ran a rotary on it so seeing buffer trails, assuming that is what I am seeing here, is not that surprising. When I have some 'extra time' I will run my GG 3" or...

If it were me I would step away from this purchase. Just too many risks for not that much benefits. Sent from my iPhone using AGOnline

I actually don't know the exact process but assumed it included some wet sanding and polishing with an AIO? Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

Thanks! I mentioned it to the repair shop and they took care of it for me. Now it is smooth. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

I do spot compound as well. This is mainly because my XC 90 has aug a large amount of real estate that I would not have enough time to dedicate for a full correction. I did do the four doors/hood a few years back now but I spot compound now with HD speed. Sent from my iPhone using AGOnline

My Volvo XC 90 was the victim of a hit and run and the left driver's side mirror was smashed. I ended up filing a claim and it was a good thing I did because the parts/labor came out to $1822. I found some scratches where I assume the mirror or glass had hit the paint. When I got the car back...

I have read that as well. The dish soap would remove historical sealants/waxes. Sent from my iPhone using AGOnline

I have the GG 5.5" orange pads with HD speed. Sent from my iPhone using AGOnline

Thanks!

Thanks - did see that but was a bit hesitant to unfasten it.

Yes it is mostly sheet metal below. There are some foam pads which I had to dry out as well. The rain has been heavy since that day.

I have had great luck with HD Speed.

Great idea thanks. Even a gas station might have one as well.
